Information on daily zoom prayer (see above) - Every morning from 7-7:30am, several of us gather on Zoom to pray for our church family. We pray with the guidance of a psalm, and other suggested prayer topics on our screens. Part of the prayer time is all-at-once prayer with audio and video off, which gives people flexibility to come and go during their morning routine. At 7:10, we read the psalm aloud and invite people to unmute and pray in turn as they are able. Some people come daily, some a couple times a week. Hop on sometime, and just observe if you like. Ask Peter for the Zoom link. And this is God's promise to His people, the church: "For what great nation is there that has a god so near to it as the Lord our God is to us, whenever we call upon him? " (Deut. 4:7).
